The difference is this has a tacky feel rather than just a rough surface.

that was my point with the whole Tennis racket tape thing

I’m kind of into this right now. The video seems to imply that the stuff only works on smooth polymer surfaces, but I bet the stuff will stick to anything.

I like it. And I may get some for the grips of my GSG. But, tactical? C’mon guys, In reality, it’s super glue and rubber shavings.

One thing I noticed is that the appearance of the final “dry’ product seems much sleeker than the appearance during application, which leads me to believe the adhesive may ‘dissolve’ the rubber or there is more to it than shown, like someone did a lot of work to make it look so nice.

At work we have this “rubberized spray paint” which I have used and it appears very similar to the final product in this video but it isn’t tactical or anything, just plain old rubber in a can.
